The 1975 - Be My Mistake (Lyrics)

Be My Mistake by The 1975
Album: A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships

Be My Mistake Lyrics:

And be my mistake
Then turn out the light
She bought me those jeans
The ones you like
I don't want to hug
I just want to sleep
The smell of your hair
Reminds me of her feet

So, don't wait outside my hotel room
Just wait till I give you a sign
'Cause I get lonesome sometimes

Save all the jokes you're going to make
Whilst I see how much drink I can take
Then be my mistake

I shouldn't have called
'Cause we shouldn't speak
You do make me hard
But she makes me weak

And don't wait outside my hotel room
Just wait till I give you a sign
'Cause I get lonesome sometimes

And save all the jokes you're going to make
Whilst I see how much drink I can take
Then be my mistake

this song makes me cry like a fuckin baby. Ive been the "mistake" and oh man, its heart wrenching to love soemone who you know is missing someone else. stay strong my friends. the world is a random, unfair place

[valerieb]

The lyric “the smell of your hair reminds me of her feet” doesn’t sound like a fetish thing. To me, it’s like the best feature of a rebound is equal to the least feature of who they really loved.

[abyssabyss]

This made me cry, and realized i shouldn't entertain other guy and deny my man. Because why would i settle for a half a percent love from other guys when i have a genuine and iam hundred percent sure love from my man.

[lou-xrrz]

_the smell of your hair reminds me of her feet_
everyone's talking about how gross this is, but i instantly pictured the girl's hair smelling like flowers, and it reminds him of his lover's feet which were soft and always smelled good. idk, that's my take, but i think it's more romantic than hair smelling like old socks.

[kylalopz]

This hits different when you’re really are a sidechick lmao it hurts

[xPandabaerchenx]

when it says “the smell of your hair reminds me of her feet” meaning that the most beautiful thing about you is equal to the worst thing about her

[FirstLast-bogy]

no matter how much he says he loves me, I know deep down I’ll never be her.

[ryangigantone]

that quote on twitter is the reason why im here

[kayleymilk]

he is a lyrical genius. and this song hurts so different.

[primaverala]

someone buying you jeans feels strangely intimate, like buying serious clothes. they know your measurements for that, that’s the stuff that only my mom and inner family can do. pain

[maxscene]

In my dad's barely used office, drinking cold coffee on a large wine glass with the orange lights dimly lit and the ac hums in the background. There is peace.

[abira.]

so her hair smells like feet ? omfg i mean i was emotionally moved by the song until i heard that part i cracked up not gonna lie. i bet matty wrote that.

[usseerr_]

“you make me hard, but she makes me weak” is the best written line i have ever read.

[kaguya-samaisacutieuwu]

Honestly, if you asked me to be your mistake, to be the warmth beside you in bed which he took with him when he left you, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I guess by being your mistake I'd somehow be one of the right things in your life, even though it'd pain me to no end. I guess that's how much I long to be within your proximity, to somehow be of help to you. I guess that's how much I'm into you.

[chickenmcnuggets]

this song reminds me of a place I was at, not too long ago. I loved him. and I knew he loves someone else. that someone else reached out to me and asked me to do her a favor, which would end in me losing him and him hating me forever. and I did it. because it would help him be happier. the things you do for love...

[chloebk]

"You do make me hard but she makes me weak" MY HEAARRTTTT

[chelseaskrr]

James Marriott did a beautiful cover of this

[rosetheroser]

Y’all stop talking about the feet part and just enjoy the damn song 🙄🙄

[chaelimilton]

idk why but this makes me thing about this girl i have a huge crush on. like i have a boyfriend but i just want her, in every possible way.

[nevaehmitchell]

This song hits different when your the one who makes him hard
